Obama is soon to select the Secretary of Agriculture.  This is a vitally important office. The fate of organic foods and the impact of Genetically Modified Foods, and the state of our soil and hence our future, depends on this.

The Organic Consumers Assn. says, “The Secretary of Agriculture is responsible for directing the U.S. Department of Agriculture and its $90 billion annual budget, including the National Organic Program, food stamp and nutrition programs, and agriculture subsidies. Through the Organic Consumers Association web portal, you can now directly communicate with the President-Elect about your choice for Secretary of Agriculture and your vision for our nation‘s food system.”
